I'll echo that. Also being married to a vet it's insane how little very qualified and experienced techs are being paid.

It's often referred to as compassion fatigue. Just because you have a love for something doesn't mean you should do it for free or cheap. The job also isn't all love and cuddles; there's a lot of having to turn away care or euthanizing because owners can't afford the needed care.

That is a problem that needs solving!

That is what burns the labour out
